Chromosome-Level Nuclear Genome of Simulium vittatum Links Black Fly Cytogenetics to Genome Organization and Evolution
Black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) are important vectors of pathogens affecting human and animal health, yet the absence of a chromosome-level nuclear reference genome has constrained molecular and evolutionary studies of the family. Here, we present the first chromosome-level nuclear genome and a developmental transcriptomic resource for the long-established IS-7 laboratory lineage of Simulium…
